«My dad was crazy, really. It was … oh, God. He was like … he sold gas, that was his work during the day, but he was also inventor. I was always inventing things.
(Presenters: Did you really invent things?)
Yes, really. So, I had all these dreams of becoming a super millionaire, you know? He invented a lot of things. In a moment … he invented something called the Auto-Scan. It was this machine – and this was in the 90s – I remember seeing it. It was like a metal detector, and detected if a used car had been in an accident. If you were going to buy a used car, you used the Auto-Scan And you passed it throughout the car …
(Presenters: To see if I had non -metallic materials as repair putty?)
Exactly! It was actually quite great. But, of course, the problem was that the Auto-Scan It cost about 400 pounds, and if you are going to buy a used car – this in the 90s – and that car costs 200 pounds, do you understand me? (laughs) the numbers did not give. And then invented something else …(Presenters: did he manufacture himself at home?)
No…
(Did you send her to do?)
I don't know.
(Was it something legitimate?)
More or less. He never managed to sell anything. “Then he invented a kind of bird feeder, who sticks to the window and the birds cannot see you; They only see their reflection.
(Presenters: That exists now! This guy was brilliant!)
Yes. Yes, it was before it existed …
(Presenters: I was ahead of your time)
Yeah!(Presenter mentions Carfax: Your father was close!)
He was advanced in his time, he was there! He was very close. But nothing took off. God bless you.
(Laughs) Nothing took off. God bless you. “«Then I wanted to write a book about Captain Boycott.
(Presenters: Who? An Irish superhero?)
No no. An imperialist, okay? He was a British guy, I think. Let's see if I tell this well so as not to ruin my father's legacy. Well, Captain Boycott, okay? There was a great landowner after the great famine from 1845 to 1849. This guy did the dirty work for the British: he took the food, threw the Irish from their lands, all that horrible. Then the Irish joined and said: 'Let's stop buying this guy!' And so the term was born boycott.My father wanted to write a book about the boycott, and said: 'All the governments of the world are going to buy it, everyone will read it!'
(Presenters: I had great dreams)
Yes, I had great dreams. He wanted to show how powerful the boycott could be. If someone behaves as an idiot, they boycott it. I hope I told it well. I think so. That is the story of the origin of the boycott, and I think people already know how to boycott, but well … my father believed that everyone should know the original story of Captain Boycott. »
